Re: Re: TAN>Do Hong Kong Cars Count?

Mr London,

Inflamatory remarks were started on your side of the Tasman by someone
making insensative comments about 16000 Ansett employees losing their jobs
which really is'nt "On-Topic" It appears that the only people that actually
contribute to this group are to be castigated and pilloried at every turn.
As for not being slow to rise to an argument, guilty as charged when it
comes to ignorance and arrogance, the latter you obviously are familiar
with, to suggest I cannot welcome a fellow enthusiast to the group, a
courtesy that is common amongst members of all other groups I have been
involved with. And if you knew me, you would realize that I am the last
person who would want a Melbourne clique as I believe I am an international
tram enthusiast, it's people like yourself that want to lead narrow
tunnelled visioned lives that screw up good natured friendly lists.And as
for "matey" correspondence, I guess that's what comes form trying to be
friendly and helping people in the hobby and again, I make no appologies for
being guilty as charged.

As usual, the people who were not there (in reference to WGB's excellent
posts) are the first to become experts about what they never saw and those
who do not work in the industry are the first to be dogmatic about which
type of tram is the best etc. Jealousy is a terrible curse.

So as for you Mr London, you should read your own remarks and go have a long
look in the mirror, take a tablet and have a good lay down, stay in NZ it's
small enough for someone with your attitude. As for the list, well you can
have your victory, time is too short and there are other lists with more
welcoming and generous of spirit people, I will confine my posts to those.

Mr King - if you would stop your inflammatory, irrelevant comments
and stick to what this group is all about, there would less need for
you to be reminded of normal courtesies.
Your previous comments on this group indicate to me that you are not
slow to leap into an argument - which creates discomfort for others
in the group. Nor do we need your snide remarks, e.g. as below.
Also I do not think it is up to you to "Welcome aboard" anyone to
this group - This is not some little Melbourne clique for you to
carry on your "matey" private correspondence: post to individuals for
that.
Just stick to the subject, avoid the personal remarks, cut the
arrogance and remember there are 67 other members please.

Hi, gang!

Unfortunately, Hong Kong really does not count

as "TramsDownUnder".

However, we have had off-topic posts on Calcutta previously. So

John, or

anybody else, if you wish to post a picture or two, go ahead.

But you

must

include "TAN" or "OT" in the subject line to indicate that it is a
non-TramsDownUnder topic.

Thanks,
